Yeah, those things are positive. Without trying to start an argument, just know that in spite of what you mentioned, many people feel a general malaise from the constant headlines from the latest controversial thing he says or does.

For example, the latest tweets threatening war with Iran. I can't imagine you arguing that this type of thing doesn't have a psychological effect for those who are paying attention to the news.

It doesn't; or it shouldn't anyway. If your mental state hinges on whether politics are going on your direction or not-- maybe you should get out of politics.

There's a good chance If I met you in real life I'd think you live in a degenerate manner which creates ripples in our shared society bringing it down further than it already is; and here I am, not having an aneurysm over the fact that leftist are actively making my nation and society degenerate in my eyes,

How many times has he been married? How many porn stars did he sleep with while his fob wife was pregnant?

Oh, that's okay because of the stock market, yeah?

I'm sure you are a saint who has never done anything "degenerate" yourself.

Using words like that to talk about the abstract "other" might be fun with your Sean Hannity buddies might be fun but keep in mind how insulting and wildy incorrect it is to paint millions of people with that broad brush because of the way they vote.

How many times has he been married? How many porn stars did he sleep with while his fob wife was pregnant?

The answer is too many, anything over 1 is too many. I don't condone him or his actions; which is why I didn't say anything in support of the president.

Oh, that's okay because of the stock market, yeah?

What?

I'm sure you are a saint who has never done anything "degenerate" yourself.

Wrong. I was born in a society where degeneracy is status quo thanks to degenerates like you. I still have to self reflect and weed out degenerate behaviors that have been imbedded in me my whole life.

All I can do is what I see morally righteous and attempt to do as little evil as I can and not engage in degeneracy.

Using words like that to talk about the abstract "other" might be fun with your

Sean Hannity buddies

Frankly I'm hurt that you think I'm a run of the mill conservative. Conservatives are weak. Conservatives don't conserve any more than the progressives progress. GenZ will not be another generation of failed rightwing men.

might be fun but keep in mind how insulting and wildy incorrect it is to paint millions of people with that broad brush because of the way they vote.

I don't paint anyone with any sort of brush. I infer based on political language if they're likely to be degenerates.
Which is why I said I would likely consider you a degenerate.
I have no idea what you believe, right an left are insanely broad.

Yeah, the media is constantly going after him. But if I had kids, I would definitely have to explain that he sets a terrible example for social discourse.

My big concern is that the damaging effects being done aren't stuff that takes immediate effect. For example, alienating offering support for Orban I'd something that will have consequences for the rest of my life.

How can USA criticize and nation for human rights violations at this point after offering praise for the likes of Saudia Arabia's (Mr. Bone Saw).
Not to mention, scrapping things like the Iran deal will have consequences for years to come. Why would anyone ever make a deal with USA at this point if some hot head like Trump will tear it up at a whim?

Yes the stock market is good right now but I plan on living longer than a few years and have grave concerns for the next decade and beyond.

And yet we have the largest trade deficit in history and the federal debt skyrocketing into the trillions.

You know we have to pay that back, right? Growing a huge financial bubble is a terrible idea for the lower and middle classes because they will end up paying for it after the crash.

I could take out a bunch of loans and take on credit card debt and live like a king and travel for a year, but unlike Trump, the next guy doesn't have to fix it, I do.

And while unemployment continues to go down at Obama's levels, most of the job growth is now in low paid part time jobs and we're losing manufacturing and blue collar jobs like mining which Trump promised to bring back. 0% unemployment means nothing if everyone is working at Walmart and Amazon.

*Tax cuts, largely for the wealthy and not seen in the middle class (data from the IRS showed tax returns for the middle class were the same if not more for the majority of the middle class).

On top of the stagnation from the previous administration, we have to deal with our president not being able to form complete sentences and misspelling on Twitter every other Tuesday, being buddies with tyrants such as Putin and Kim, dismantling the EPA, his administration ignoring congressional subpoenas, implicit and explicit racism, warmongering with Iran, removal of the US from the Paris agreement to appease oil companies, money laundering from deutsche bank whose records will
have to be released soon, obvious obstruction of justice shown in the Mueller report, and more.

So, no, as much as you want to ignore all of the obvious red flags from our idiot in chief, the day is slowly approaching where you can’t make excuses anymore because he will be seen as a criminal.

The stock market is always going to "set records" if it keeps going up, that's literally how it works, it has "set records" for most of the last 90 years with mostly very small corrections, and it "set records" immediately after he was elected due to us already being in a economic boom.

As for regulation cuts, you might wish to look into that because Trump's administration is on track to sign the least bills of any President in recent history, and passing bills is literally how you get rid of regulations, you don't just wish them away. There were dozens of in depth analysis of Trump's regulation removal rates, especially around the time they came out grandstanding at the end of 2017 with the big press conference where he cut a ribbon between two piles of paper, each one meant to represent "regulations", because he has to keep it simple for his supporters, they have a hard time with any thinking beyond surface level. Summary of the analysis- They mostly cut inactive regulations, and in some cases they fucked us all over for seemingly no good reason, so thanks Trump supporter you helped kill both of us a little bit. How? Well here stupid- The list of Trump's regulation cuts and their current status. It's not that large a list, because he hasn't really done shit but campaign non-stop, but go ahead and read what some of the things they want to allow, particularly read the one called "Dental Mercury waste rule", yeah he's trying to make it so they can dump mercury in your water, and your stupid ass supports that. Luckily in that case they were too incompetent to manage any permanent change.

The tax cuts, well hopefully you're young, you'll understand the truth about the tax cuts soon enough, or you can look back at the Bush tax cuts which were quite similar in nature. Current estimates is he just stuck you and your kids with a 2 trillion dollar bill that went entirely to the rich and corporations. But don't take my word for it, ask the internet.

Stock markets fluctuate all the time. In the last few months the Dow has dropped hundreds of points on multiple occasions. Coupled with the fact that most Americans either dont own stock or own negligible amounts of stock, it doesnt mean much to the average American. The economy in general is a slow moving process that is built on policy years in advance. The growth that Trump has had up until now was on par with the end of Obama's second term. Add the shit-tossing contest with China, where Trump doesnt seem to understand that American importers pay the tariffs, and whole sectors of our economy, such as agriculture, could end up being devastated.

Yeah stock markets set records on Trumps hype, and deregulation and tax cuts had a big part of that because rich wealthy stockholders can make more money when things like the protecting the environment and important regulations get removed. And the tax cuts for the wealthy always lets those guys put more money into the stock market. Yet the middle class is now paying more taxes these days. Now his trade wars are hurting American businesses and consumers. I mean all you have to do is look at the charts, they were going up long before Trump was elected, and spiked. Now his policies are threatening to erase those gains and start another recession.

The first year of a new president is still operating on the previous presidents budget and policies. Low unemployment numbers largely came from Obama's terms and improvements he made, not the Trump mess. Those things aren't in doubt, just google it.

Lol 2 years is nothing for a superpower’s economy. It took Bush 8 years to nearly cause a depression, not 2. Leave Trump in office long enough he will do the same trust me (oh wait, you are a Trump supporter, all you can follow is a liar so you may not completely understand that phrase.)

Those things have little to do with the main characters of the show. Salient points (if we are following the GoT metaphor) would be something like: king can’t stop saying nonsensical garbage. Multiple advisors and the ones leading his ascension to the throne doing time in federal lockup. Kings most trusted confidant who did his bidding for years telling everyone about the behind the scenes felonies that went on under the kings directives. I could continue on, but the calling dotard king, even in a metaphor that is connected to a fantasy kind of disgusts me
